I would like to help you with your question but don't quite understand what you mean by the "deals posted on Lindblad's website".

You write that you want to take the family to Galápagos, does "the family" include children? And how many people would you be?

If you answer my questions, I can help you better.
but this so far:
The best discounts you get from last minute deals which can be found in high and low season. However, as these promotional rates only are available few weeks before the cruises, your favored boat might be already full.

Get on their email list and you'll get their specials when they come out (bottom right corner of Lindblad's website is"email signup"). I have seen discounted trips from them.

We went to Galapagos in November on a special that was close to half the published price which we received via promotional email in the July timeframe (our company was International Expeditions). If you're flexible in what boat and tour company, there's a website that posts specials from some of the boat companies for the next 90 days out. Post on TripAdvisor, there's some locals there who can give you the link.
